Thursday last week saw the launch of Hair! Human Stories, an exhibition curated by Emma Tarlo which takes us on an intriguing journey into the world of hair. From intimate personal stories to unexpectedly global tales about hair’s circulation around the world, Hair! Human Stories explores our curious relationship to hair.

What do we feel about our hair?

How do we view it differently when cut from the head?

Encounter strange art works made from hair, see images of hair harvests and wig manufacture past and present, learn about hair’s recycling possibilities. This exhibition invites you to confront hair – the original human fibre.
